Bridge shows different dimensions that in reality

I crop images, resize them to 2000x2000 and save as png. When I check dimensions (usually in bridge) - bridge shows me different dimensions. I open it in Photoshop - it's 2000x2000. I select properties of file in explorer - 2000x2000. In bridge - others. And I don't know it's a bug of Bridge or of Photoshop (perhaps it does not changed some metadata of file).

Photoshop 19.0 x64, Bridge 8.0.0.262 x64

PS I sent these files to another person, she has previous versions of
Bridge and Photoshop - all the same. Photoshop show one size, Bridge -
another.

It's possible Bridge isn't updating the file. I've had that happen before, and PNG files seem to be the worst. But it should have updated when it got sent to your friend who had never had it cached on disk. Otherwise I'd think that purging cache might force Bridge to update the image to reflect the cropped dimensions.

I'm not seeing the problem here, but if you'd provide more information about your OS and what version of Bridge and PS you're running, it would help the Adobe team test any file you upload on the same OS and version.

These files was not in this folder before. And if it was a day or two ago (parent files with full article) - they also was 2000x2000, all files in this directory have these dimensions. I purged cache, it was my first intention. I restarted PC. Nothing changed.

I can confirm what you are seeing. When using PS 2018 'Save as PNG' Bridge incorrectly displays the XMP-tiff 'ImageWidth' and 'Image Height' metadata fields in the PNG file. Since your friend sees the same issue using PS 2017 and Bridge 2017 it would indicate a bug in PS 2018 'Save As PNG.'

All other methods of creating a PNG in PS don't exhibit this issue. A camera raw image file was cropped to 1x1 and Exported to TIFF using LR Classic. The TIFF file was then resized to 2000x2000 inside PS 2018 and output using the below methods. I'm on Windows 7 SP1 64 bit.

On my Mac running El Capitan, not using LR, I've tried saving both JPEGs and TIFFs as a PNG file every way out of PS I can think of—Save As, Quick Export as PNG, Export As, and SFW. I've even quit and relaunched, because I had a long-standing problem with Trimming a PNG with Transpaency, saving it, then after quitting and relaunching Bridge, I could no longer add metadata to the file (said it didn't support it).

So I know PNGs are delicate, both in PS and in Bridge. I even get PNG files sometimes that Adobe can't open (the old Fireworks often could), but Preview can open them. But I'm just not able to find the right combination that prevents PS from attaching the correct dimensions or Bridge from reading them.

A Windows thing, since you're both apparently running Windows? Or can someone on Sierra or High Sierra also confirm?

Cristen, it appears to be a Windows system only issue. I checked the PNG files again in numerous other applications and they all show 2000x2000 pixel Width and Height dimensions. So it's not a PS issue, but a bug in Bridge 2018 (verion 8.0).

These images are from one session, i converted them into psd from lightroom (previous version) simultaneously, i can run this action once time again and it will save all correcly. (I did this for others 6 or 5 photos that I noticed first, not really figuring out what happened - and it worked - all files were 2000x2000 after second iteration. And yes, I think it's a random bug.

I use English version of Photosop, don't like localization.

Now, when i know, that it's a bug with metadata, not with dimensions themselves, I think I can deal with it, it's not so bad that if it was a bug with real dimensions. But it's uncomfortable.

Alright, so for me when i save the png, Large and Medium option will provoke the bug, but saving with smallest file (save as) will display the correct dims. Using Save for Web with any of the metadata options also works as expected.

I'm thinking this bug is related to the bloated metadata files. The original png's are 11MB, but when i save for web or save as small, the files are 3.3MB...

OK, I opened the same LR TIFF export file and processed it again exactly the same way. All methods of creating a PNG file with PS 2018 are showing as 2000x2000 pixels in Bridge 2018 (version 8.0). I now cannot duplicate the issue! I'll try it again in the morning after a system reboot.

I tried again, too. I cropped to roughly 2000x2000 px, but left big data intact. Then I used File> Save As, and picked PNG, Large size (fastest save) — which is what I'd used before the other times I'd used Save As — and still Bridge had no problem with it.

Next I took the same image, cropped it so it was a square closer to 2600x2600 px, left big data intact, left it at 16 bit, used Save As with Medium, Export As, Quick Export as PNG, and SFW. All of them came through with the right dimensions. I'm at a loss here. I'll no doubt run into it one of these days, but if they can't replicate it, they can't fix it.<sigh>

After rebooting this morning I'm unable to reproduce the issue using the same TIF file and or 2nd LR export TIF file. I've uploaded the original PNG file from yesterday that exhibits the issue to Dropbox. It's was created using a 5D MKII camera raw file (5616x3744) with 1x1 Crop (3744x3744), exported to 16 bit, ProPhotoRGB, TIF file format using LR Classic. The file was then resized to 2000x200 using Image Size> Automatic and 'Save As' PNG Large File Size in PS 2018 (19.0).

well, I tried today to process a bunch of files, to view if I can reproduce it more or less frequently. I have 72 psd, which I flattened and saved as tiffs by Image Processor for speed. After that I ran an action that change Image Size (2000x2000, bicubic), saves copy of file several times in PNG - in folder "large" -using large in save as png, in folder "medium" - using medium and in folder "small" - using small.

I ran once with all 3 saves checked. Folders "large", "medium", "small" - 9 first images was with parent dimensions, all others - 2000x2000.

I ran 3 times again, with only one save checked - one time large, second - medium, third - small. Folders "large", "medium" - 10 first images with parent dimensions, others 2000x2000, "small" all images was 2000x2000.

I moved first 10 first images, that was saved almost every time with parent dimensions and left 62 images that was fine in previous iterations. I ran 3 times again, same algorithm - with only one save checked - one time large, second - medium, third - small. Folder "large" - all 2000x2000, "medium"- first 10 images with parent dimensions, the rest - 2000x2000, "small" - only one! photo had parent dimensions (7th in the list), the rest 2000x2000.

I uploaded tiffs, action and one small script at https://yadi.sk/d/cb_vtYvp3P2kU3 (72 tif files, 3720 mb). This script I run for square images and use it for checking if height of document is an even number. (Resizing with Image Processor a square image with odd dimensions results 2001/1999 instead of 2000). I think that this script does not affect the result, but for an unbiased experiment I uploaded it.

Well, hope you'll be able to reproduce this issue with these images...

For files that you are getting incorrect/different dimension try selecting those files right click and select purge cache for selection . And then check the dimension info . Please let us know if you are still getting this issue.

I did this first time i get this error, it does not helped. As I deleted all tests that I made then, now i repeated my test.I saved 63 files in batch. This time first 8 photo, 10th and 12th have parent dimensions. I selected them, purged cache for them - nothing changed.Yes, it does not help.
